Book Review and Giveaway: Coming of Snow by jenny Milchman

coming of snow tour banenr


Synopsis: Waking up one wintry morning in her old farmhouse nestled in the Adirondack Mountains of New York, Nora Hamilton instantly knows that something is wrong. When her fog of sleep clears, she finds her world is suddenly, irretrievably shattered: Her husband, Brendan, has committed suicide.

The first few hours following Nora’s devastating discovery pass for her in a blur of numbness and disbelief. Then, a disturbing awareness slowly settles in: Brendan left no note and gave no indication that he was contemplating taking his own life. Why would a rock-solid police officer with unwavering affection for his wife, job, and quaint hometown suddenly choose to end it all? Having spent a lifetime avoiding hard truths, Nora must now start facing them.

Unraveling her late husband’s final days, Nora searches for an explanation—but finds a bewildering resistance from Brendan’s best friend and partner, his fellow police officers, and his brittle mother. It quickly becomes clear to Nora that she is asking questions no one wants to answer. For beneath the soft cover of snow lies a powerful conspiracy that will stop at nothing to keep its presence unknown . and its darkest secrets hidden.

Review: When you start this book, be prepared to NOT put it down. I was warned, so I knew better, but I still had to force myself to stay away until I could finish it, as my brain did NOT want to put it down! This is one of those mysteries where you think you have one riddle solved, but that solution poses more questions and leas you onto the next one, until everything is resolved in a shock at the end!

Jennifer does a great job in getting you attached to the characters and invested in what happens to them. I found myself wanting to yell and shake them sometimes, but that only made the book a better read- I was attached to them!
